4.2 Combustible

4.2.1 Proper Fuel

Each type of pellet has its properties and will burn differently. The amount of ashes produced can also
vary greatly. Conventional pellets are those ¼" or 5/16" in diameter and not over 1" long. Longer or
thicker pellets will prevent proper pellet feed.
For example, if the pellets are very short, they will have more ease to accumulate and pile into the
feed screws. Thus, the volume of pellets will be denser, which will lead to an increase in BTU. By
contrast, longer pellets will pile less so the BTU will be reduced.
The bottom-feed system of this stove is designed and tested specifically for use with premium grade
wood pellets PFI certified (Pellet Fuel Institute).

4.2.2 Where to Store Bags of Pellets

We recommend that you store your bags of pellets in a dry and well ventilated area if possible. Using
dry pellets will increase the performance of your stove. You may want to have a bag or two in the
same room as your stove for refueling but make sure to respect the minimum clearances to
combustible materials and the space required for refilling and ash removal.
USE OF SMOKE DETECTORS AND CARBON MONOXIDE MONITORS IS STRONGLY RECOMMANDED IN
PELLET FUEL BULK STORAGE AREAS.
